Hemodynamic parameters in a surgical devascularization model of fulminant hepatic failure in the minipig.

چکیده
Animal models of fulminant hepatic failure (FHF) are important for studying the pathophysiology of this process and for evaluation of the efficacy of artificial and bioartificial liver support systems. In experiments, hemodynamic parameters were monitored in a group of minipigs with FHF induced by surgical devascularization, and compared with those in a control group. During the experiment, animals were analgosedated and were on mechanical lung ventilation. Crystalloid and colloidal solutions were administered and norepinephrine in continuous infusion was applied if mean arterial pressure (MAP) decreased below 60 mm Hg despite adequate intravascular volumes. An increase in heart rate, and decreases in MAP and systemic vascular resistance, compared with the baseline, occurred in the FHF group from 6 h after surgery. A comparison of FHF and control groups revealed no significant differences in systemic vascular resistance and MAP until after 12 h after surgery (systemic vascular resistance index: 953 FHF vs. 1658 controls; p < 0.05; MAP: 58.1 FHF vs. 76 controls; p < 0.05). No significant differences in CI were seen between the FHF group and controls. FHF animals survived for about 13 h after surgery, i.e. a period, which we consider long enough to test a support device. The parameters are believed to be quite adequate, as we were able to maintain satisfactory hemodynamic stability in all experimental animals with induced acute hepatic failure.

Devascularization surgical model of acute liver failure in minipigs.
AIM The study was designed to develop a readily reproducible model of acute liver failure (ALF) in the minipig, to gain an 8-hour therapeutic window to mimic, as closely as possible, acute liver failure in man. METHOD We used reversible devascularization model of ALF in the minipig involving hepatic artery ligation and establish an end-to-side portocaval anastomosis. Standard laboratory monit...
متن کاملGlyphosate Poisoning with Acute Fulminant Hepatic Failure
Background: Glyphosate containing herbicides are widely used the world over. They are marketed as nontoxic to humans, but numerous studies have showed that these glyphosate-based herbicides (GlySH) can cause multiorgan damage.1 Recent reports of animal studies on rats have raised a doubt of liver damage after long term exposure to GlySH. Case Presentation: a young male had chronic exposure to G...

Effect of Early Mobilization on Hemodynamic Parameters of Patients Undergoing Sleeve Gastrectomy; A Randomized Clinical Trial
Aims: Today, due to the failure of non-surgical methods in the treatment of obesity, surgical procedures such as sleeve gastrocetomy are used. Similar to other invasive interventions, sleeve gastrectomy causes an imbalance in hemodynamic parameters. The aim of this study was to determine the effect of early mobilization on hemodynamic parameters in patients undergoing sleeve gastrectomy. Mater...
